CMS systems ?

[bu((aneer]

I have a little motto...
IF you can imagine it, CARMA can do it. And it's not a lie. You just need to be creative.

BTW - if you're looking into CARMA - mention my name Simon / Quantum-X - and will be looked after for sure.

Ahhh, its all making sense now, I guess you must be pulling in a percentage for every copy of Carma!!

Damn. Cannot believe I missed this post earlier :-(( Thanks Jay - appreciate that. If all else fails I will be more than happy to take care of it for you.

Do you have a lease option like Carma????

LOL, I wish. I don't make anything from them, I've just worked with them getting sites going for Netpond, JaYMaN cash, and a few other guys - so they have gotten to know me

I love my copy of X-Tract. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a paysite CMS.

Currently we do not have a lease option, however, we do work with you if you need to spread out the payments over a few months. Case by case basis.

With MAS you get FREE SUPPORT (the best), FREE INSTALLATION and FREE UPGRADES.

Why not? What happened to you?

Without going into details it was just a frustrating experience. Some people seem to be satisfied with them, so maybe mine was a unique situation. I did request a refund after a month and received it. I gave the Xtract folks the same job and it was setup and customized within a week or two and I'm very happy with them.

MAS and Carma are likely the best options. However, if you want full-featured CMS for $500 which supports unlimited sites out of the box, gives you full source access and offers solid support, I believe Xtract (http://www.ecoders.biz) is your best bet.

SiteDepth looks to be very nice as well, but I did not contact them because of lack-of-support complaints. Note - to get the source for SD you have to pay $4000.

Correct. I've done a LOT of work on SD systems. Their system is good. I think that if they took on a new staff member, they'd be a very good contender in the $500 market.

Who is the leading contender in the $500 market then? I figured it was already SiteDepth. That would make sense since it might be difficult for a small staff to support a large # of installs.

CARMA uses SMARTY is its templating system - for anyone who knows about it, that's really enough said. You can do ANYTHING with your templates.

Also forgot to mention that Xtract uses the SMARTY engine as well

I wasn't aware Xtract used SMARTY - there you go

RE: SD - they only have one support staff member, alfredo - who does great work, I think he just needs a friend Oh bu((aneer - if you look at SD tell omar to send me a % :P
